ExamplE9 blues

We round things up with a complete chorus against a 12-bar jazz blues in F. Crucial here is stewart’s use of space. There are some instances with a bar or more rest between lines, allowing each idea to breathe and punctuating the phrases beautifully. secondly, there are numerous instances of repetition on a single note, proving that it’s not always necessary or desirable to fly all over the place, all the time. Make sure you make the connections here between note selection and chord symbol so this might require a bit of mental practise with spelling out each arpeggio.
